Recaiver’s Seco Shows That on April 16, 1d_Rpplicaton Fle A Hearing to be Held in This City on Sept. 2—Statement 1913, Thames Loan and Trust Company Held $950,748.17, of Which $567,835.34 Were In Savings Department 3 . Judge Williams came from Derby on Friday and at i o'clock in the superior court room in this city held a hearing on the application of Receiver Charles ¥. Thayer for advice in regard to set- tling _the affairs of the Thames Loan and Trust company with its depositors. "The questions were those in regard to setoffs of claims of depositors in each or both of the two departments of the trust company who also have moneys of the trust company as embodied in the application first submitted by the receiver, with the addition of a detail- ed statement describing the - routine followed by the company in doing bus- iness previous to April 16, 1913. This was placed on flle and an order of no- e granted setting a hearing for 10 o'clock on the morning of Sept. 2. The order of notice directs Receiver Thayer to mail a copy of the application, ex- clusive of the exhibits attached to it, to each of the parties in the matter on or before Aug. 23. The people cited are James L. Case, E. B. Worthington, Gordon, Barnett Davidson, Marion J. Rosenberg and Caroline Ty ler Turner of Norwich, Irving L. Gar ner of Lebanon and the National Re- serve bank of New York city. The second application submitted by Receiver Thayer was presented by At- torney Charles V. James and com- prises 22 typewritten pages. It sets forth the matter of setoffs and is sub- stantially the same except that it de- scribes the business procedure of the irust company, There was no division into departments or rooms with sep~ arate office employes, but all of its business of receiving and paying out . moneyg was over one counter by the same clerks, teils or assistants whether in the savings or commercial depart- ment. Receiver Thayer states that on April 16, 1913, the Thames Loan and Trust company held moneys amounting to $950,748.17. These were apportioned as “follows: General deposits, $280,- 944.67; deposits in savings department, $567,835.34; deposits in home depart- ment, . $21,701.25; deposits in _school savings system, $671.25; deposits evi- denced by certificates, $79,589.66. The aggregate credit balance in the savings deposits side on April 16, 1913, came to a total of $589,53 Ttems in these accounts were: Loans on real estate, $142,064.21; security, $182,257.92; loans on personal security only, $32,213; town, city and borough notes and orders, ,500; school district notes and orders, $400; railroad bonds, $24,700; bank stocks, $64,586.50; deposited in national bank, of commerce, $35,779.90, the total amounting to $538,500.93. This left a balance of $81,035.66 in the general funds. The statement in the application for advice is not such as to indicate the assets of the trust company, in which over 3,500 people had deposits.
